What players say

98% of 27,906 reviews are positive · 95% of 250 in the last 30 days

Players praise the fluid movement and shooting, wide build variety, and co-op. Many experienced players say a major update made maps more restrictive, weakened loot, and turned the highest difficulty ranks into an RNG-heavy grind.
